Juliet Art Museum X Christybomb!
7/3/2019
“Haneul” by Christybomb Opens Saturday, August 3rd
“In August, we are excited to welcome local artist Christybomb to showcase her exhibition, Haneul in the Juliet Art Museum! In this exhibition, Christybomb will transform the gallery into a fantasy, dream-like wonderland inspired by her late father, “Flying Tiger,” her biggest champion in life. This heavenly sanctuary—full of joy and sparkles—is reminiscent of the way Christybomb always felt in the safety of her father’s arms. The sparkles in her artwork represent his smile, but more importantly the magical twinkle felt between father and daughter.
This experiential and interactive exhibition invites the viewer into a whimsical, heavenly and seemingly floating space to evoke deep, ethereal and often fleeting emotions such as holding a child for the first time, Christmas morning, or a first kiss.”

Christybomb joins Ink and Movement Friends!
3/23/2019
Christybomb
Christybomb is the ultimate bedazzler. Armed with an arsenal of crafts and tweezers, she transforms the ordinary into extraordinary with ultraprecision, resulting in circus-like, mixed media mosaics that are textural, colorful, and bold. The idea of making something out of nothing—with ingredients that are largely frivolous or even throwaway in nature—is a key element in her creative process. When she’s not riding her unicorn, she splits her time between New York City and Charleston, spreading the joy of sparkles wherever she goes!
We had the pleasure of having Christybomb as guest artist in “Theriomorphism V”, group show curated by Okuda San Miguel and organized by Ink and Movement in February 2018, Madrid

Christybomb's Exciting New Tapestries at the Lazy Susan Gallery in LES
10/7/2016
Lazy Susan Gallery is pleased to present "Acid Free" – a group exhibition of new art by Christybomb, MAVA, and Sally Ko, curated by Jill Conner. The show's title references elusive and, at times, exclusionary boundaries that exist between the realms of art and craft.
Christybomb works by sourcing atypical materials and then layering the combination of craft objects, acrylic paint, and other materials stressing the relationships between shape and color. For this exhibition, she explores a monochromatic palette of white on white, black and grays along with concentric shapes comprised of pipe cleaners and yarn.

From high realism to abstract expression, Reinventing Ourselves from another POV exhibition will provide an open platform for self-exploration. The exhibition is curated by Dulce Menendez and Sergio Gomez. Award jurors: Howard Tullman, John Seed and Nicki Escudero.
